A software that is based on data from geographic information systems (GIS) and it optimized concepts for local heating networks Baden-Württemberg’s energy and climate agency KEA has developed. At a conference of the Ministry of the Environment has presented Helmut Böhnisch.

For the determination of the heat demand in a neighborhood of the stock detecting, classification of residential building, a commission, a simulation and then a comparison with existing data is first necessary. The necessary information can be drawn from geographic information systems or optimize it.

geodata first enter information about the location and geometry of the building in a neighborhood. You can order additional data from surveys and inspections are completed. In a first coarse grid planning spatial data can serve as a basis. The information stored there to show roads where possible routes for networks could be and can also optimize the routes. On the web site of the central heating system is then determined, and based on that main lines and house lines defined.

In the design of networks can then be developed by the KEA Software heating network analyst used. It ensures that the cable cross-sections fit perfectly to the expected heat load. The software itself is distributed free of charge by KEA for the printed manual and the shipping is a service charge of 50 euros is payable. pgl
